The one piece of advice that I give every client is, be careful what you write by way of email, or text, or what you post on social media. If you don’t want a judge reading what you’ve written, then you shouldn’t write it because it will come back to haunt you.

In the first six years of my legal career I was a prosecutor in Boston trying cases to juries – serious felony cases such as shootings, stabbings, sexual assaults, armed robberies.

The skills that I learned and picked up along the way doing that were readily transferable to what we do here today, and what I specifically do as I try personal injury cases to juries, and I also try divorce cases and domestic relations cases to judges. There’s no right to a jury trial in domestic relations cases in Massachusetts, but the trial skills are the same.
